Cain J
A First-Class English Tutor
I have a prevailing focus on written communication, clarity of grammar and deployment of good vocabulary. Above all I want pupils to be able to articulate what they think. Lessons are typically 40 minutes, maximizing attention and retention. We will focus on set texts, with small passages of required reading where useful. All pupils will begin with a session designed to assess their current level and how we can expect to meet their goals in the subject.I have taught in classrooms and privately tutored for 5 years, with pupils as young as 9 and as old as 29. I am experienced teaching bottom band/set...

Matty H
Dynamic and Engaging English Tutor with 5 years experience
Hi! I'm Matty,I am a recent graduate from the University of Nottingham. I have over 300 hours of tutoring experience from the last 5 years, both online and in person.I have only recently joined Tutorful! I believe the most important aspect of tutoring is reconnecting the student with the subject. I often find students can be a little uninspired by maths/english, so I try my best to show them a different side to what they might usually experience at school, with more engaging and fun lessons.I specialise in tutoring maths, and I am able to teach it at primary and secondary level. Most of my students...

Recently qualified as a Maths Teacher at Oxford University. I have trained in 3 comprehensive secondary schools and worked with students and parents from a diversity of different backgrounds. I currently teach at The University of Kent.Passing through the motions of the typical teaching day, I would often catch myself observing interactions between teachers and students outside of just the mathematical subject knowledge discussions. I could not help but notice the underlying deeper relations that were happening subconsciously. I quickly saw the pitfalls in communication where both individuals were...

Hi, I'm Trevor and I have been in education for twenty years. From senior leadership to one on one tutor, my goal remains to develop a personal and trusting relationship with the individuals I teach.

Ben H
Engaging English tutor
I firmly believe that teaching is a two-way process. Whether I'm in a classroom or online, I will create a dialogue so the pupils/tutees feel involved in the process and are able to question, inquire and verbalise what we are learning. Very few people learn by being told something once, so my tutoring sessions are generally about discovery, mastery and learning side by side to answer the big questions along with my years of expertise providing the content.I have worked in education for 12 years in all sorts of settings, with a huge range of pupils. My track record is impressive and I firmly believe...

Catherine C
Our daughter (8) has really started to flourish with Catherine's support. She enjoys a mixture of reading, spellings and Spanish in each of her sessions, with the readings tailored towards her passion for science. Her weekly tutoring sessions have had a positive impact upon her confidence, with noticeable progression at school moving up a reading group for example.
I would highly recommend Catherine for her energetic and fun approach to learning which has suited our daughter perfectly.

Erin H
Erin is an amazing tutor! My daughter’s confidence has dramatically improved since her lessons with Erin, and her grades in both English language and literature have soared. My daughter (Y11) says Erin is very kind and patient, explains concepts really clearly and makes sure she understands everything covered in each lesson. My daughter’s ability to analyse texts and structure her writing has really taken off with Erin’s help. Erin has also given her lots of handouts and resources relevant to her GCSE exam board, and has offered to mark her written work if needed. My daughter really enjoys English now, and is considering taking English literature at A level! I can’t praise Erin highly enough, and would recommend her to anyone.
